Cambridge was so close. Still, chance to beat Steve Evans again should never be turned down
Gills not a walk over but if we have winnable 3rd round tie or a plum prem tie I can see everyone being motivated
Also got the top prem teams in then too... In a normal season I'd like to see us progress, but with this many games coming thick and fast I'd like to get a big tie like Liverpool away on sky, or as I said villa
Definitely be tempted not to field our strongest side - we would be playing on a Tuesday (I think) but a long journey, and little recovery time before the Friday night game v QPR.
We have players who performed well in pre season though who can play. Drysdale, Burroughs, bapaga, Rowe, baka or max, Mason, sheaf/Kelly minutes. It's not all bad
Wow the game is next week?! To be fair I think quarter line up will be sorted by start of October!
Hopefully ifollow show this match too
I think this season more than before teams will prioritise the league and could well field much weaker teams
Phil babb was a pretty good player weren't he to be fair
So early into the season. No point rotating much imo. Will be first 3 game week. We have a week off after yesterday's gamw remmeber
But rotation we can afford now is walker baka Shipley Drysdale jones etc so we can put a good team out but i hope for minimal rotation in cup personally
Lack of a rwb for so many games is a worry though

Yeah he was, it’s a shame I remember him more for smashing his spuds into the post. Ouch!
Agree - think the prize money for the second round is about £7,500 (not much change after coach travel. meals etc) - as you said earlier, the only real attraction is getting a TV game for a few ££s, but barely worth it in terms of the importance of staying in this division, with all that's going on.
I rmeber at a autohraph signing i said good luck in usa for the wirls cup
Dont think he ever played for us again lol
Same with Scott damn I saw him outside ricoh after I went gym and said good luck k in the Tuesday night game later that evening. He left the weekend after lol
I tried my best on burge. Took multiple meetings lol
I thinkId play the first choice back 4 to get more time understanding each other and rotate the rest. Something like:
Marośi
Østigård McFadz Hyam (unless Rose is fit)
Pask Sheaf Shipley Mason
Jones Hilßner/Bapaga
Baka
Still good enough to win.

We would be playing Saturday, Tues (or Wed) and Friday next week isn't it?
In my opinion we sacrifice the Tues/Wed game (or risk it with 2nd string) to ensure our Friday team isn't compromised.
Fuck it play the kids Against Gills. We’re gonna get beat by a dull midlands team next round anyway.
Wolves will be out to win cup
Stoke will be I proved if o Neil's work is anythinf to by
Tough game regardless

Tough game (if we beat gillingham) but could have been worse.

Maybe stoke will.win
We have a chance. We are a championship club now
Heck we best them when they in prem a d we in league 2
Hopefully wolves will play kids but they went far in europa so not worried about a lot of games

I never like losing, but this season is so pivotal to the club, and the prize money so piffling, I just don't want extra unnecessary games. Fine to use Gillingham (and the next round if we get through) to give players game time (Max, JJ, etc, but I would fill the team up with the likes of Eccles, Bapaga, Burroughs etc. There is a chance Gillingham won't go full tilt due to similar early season concerns, so we may still get through, but it would be criminal to get players injured/leggy before our first home game just a couple of days later.
He should have been given a testi moan ial for that!
Winning breeds confidence. Plus the motivation of players playing well to make sure they're in the team for Liverpool / Man Utd / Galactic Allstars away.
History is on our side. We beat Stoke recently and we smashed Wolves in 1967
Agree with the confidence bit (and don't want to lose the unbeaten 2020 tag) - but would you play our first string down at Gillingham on Tues/Wed with a first home game on the Friday night? Not for me.
Change 4 or 5. Good balance
Marosi
Hyam
Leo
Drysdale
Rowe
Kelly
Hamer
Shipley
Allen
Walker
For example. Still competitive
